In 1967, as a reaction to the Vietnam War and the media coverage of it, mostly French directors and one female director formed a group that wanted to show in a collective film how this war, supposedly far away in the Far East, affects their consciousness. The result was a compilation of several documentary and fictional short films, each of which became a sign of passionate protest in its own right, but even more so as a whole. A film-historically highly interesting example of how politically engaged cinema can nevertheless produce highly individual contributions.
